Chapter 58 The Breaking Point

• It was unbearable the tension in the packhouse. Every passing moment without Ares felt like another weight on my chest, every depth of every breath shallower than it needed to be. I hadn't told Zeus the truth about where I'd gone. How could I? How could I tell him that I had gone to the Shadow Pack, the very place he had sworn to protect us from? The very place that held so many secrets from my past?
• When Zeus returned inside, his eyes were fixed directly on me. I felt his anger even before he said a word.
